Ashamed to say I'd never heard of it, Wim  :-[

 RHS Plant Finder says it was last listed in the UK in 2009 and  was " cited in The Garden (2008) 133 (4) p. 251, _253_ "

 Good luck!

Six nurseries in the USA list it Wim, but I guess you were looking for somewhere closer to home?

Hello Wim,

Have you tried Pepiniere "Le Try"?
They have many different Cercis.
Yours is not in their list, but I can imagine they have more then there is on the list.

Sorry, but I do remember visiting a great nursery in Boskoop, The Netherlands.
Again it is not on their list, but they are very nice people and maybe they can help you anyway.

 Ha HA! There's more than one type of "plant hunter" isn't there?  :D ;D


 Good luck  in the hunt for this elusive  Cercis.
